I want to access my files on my home computer when I'm away (school, vacation etc). I set up a scheduled task to send to send me my external IP address by email because I have a dynamic IP and dont want a static url. (dyndns) I planned to use sftp for an encrypted connection, but I dont know where to start. How can I set up my computer to accept incoming requests, but without any security issues?

PuTTY SFTP syntax required to copy a file from computer 10.0.2.2, on user t0p's Desktop (eg /t0p/Desktop/file.txt , to the XP computer? The PuTTY instructions seem to make no sense to me.

View 1 Replies View Relatedi have recently put opensuse 11.2 into a computer with XP on it. I held out on GRUB, but now i need it. I was wondering in this will interfere with my XP update.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAt the moment I've got dual-bootable machine with WinXP (25GB on hard disk) and openSUSE 11.2 (20GB on hard disk). After saving the important files on my ~/home I want to wipe off all data from both my partitions and then install WinXP (with 15GB) and openSUSE 11.2 with 30GB. The problem is I'm not sure how to go about doing this? I'm guessing the problem will be the boot process. I installed openSUSE on a machine that already had WinXP and I didn't change any boot settings so it must still be controlled by XP. So presumably I'd have to:
1. Remove openSUSE first and then remove XP using the XP CD.
2. Install XP again
3. Install openSUSE on another partition as I did before but with different partition sizes.
Or should I install openSUSE first before XP? I think I'm more confident on installing XP first since I've already done it earlier. The only other complication is that this is my 'laptop' screen is broken so I use an external monitor. This is what prevented me from formatting my computer earlier.
Thanks.
I forwarded my port 22 so i can access my ssh console on my mac or Windows (using ssh secure shell client for Windows by the company SSH). On Windows i can transfer the files no problem. Now on my mac's Finder ( that supports sftp natively ) i can't access the sftp is any configuration i need to make?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been instructed to set up an sftp server this weekend. I was going to just use vsftpd b/c it's awsome, but then someone said it's supposed to use ssh. so here's my question:
Is Vsftpd the same thing as Sftp? is it the same openssh protocol for encryption and file transport? I've set up Vsftpd before and it just uses port 21, and it doesn't seem to ask all the same questions as ssh, so is it the same thing? or should/could I tunnel vsftpd through ssh?

Will opensuse 11.2 gnome work on this computer? I don't need to use compiz or fancy stuff.
I have a laptop that runs openSUSE 11.2, KDE 4.3.*. I've connected an external monitor to this laptop. The problem is my laptop screen is broke and I want Linux to use my external monitor as the master output. When ever I boot it's always the laptop screen that's taken as the master and my external monitor always have the resolution of the laptop. What I want to do is disable the laptop screen and change the resolution of my external monitor when the computer boots. The following commands seem to do what I want

I'm relevant with linux but I don't know how to make it so that when the computer boots up it asks me to login. Right now it just logs my user in.
View 3 Replies View RelatedBrand-new to Linux. Using a computer with openSUSE 11.3 (64-bit) freshly installed. Install went flawlessly without any kind of error messages.
Hardware used: MSI X58 Eclipse, Intel i7-920, 6 GB memory, Seagate 500 GB SATA.
openSUSE is the only OS installed.
After the install is finished, all programs work fine. HOWEVER when I try to shut down/restart the computer nothing happens! I basically have to use the power off button to shut down...
I want to do an apparently simple task but since I migrated to Opensuse I found no way to do it. I have an enhanced install of Opensuse 11.3, where I added softwares from different sources according to my needs. Now that it's working fine I would like to make the same kind of install for two friends of mine and for a virtual machine on Virtualbox. In Ubuntu I used remastersys and in few minutes it created a live DVD with all the content of my system, and all of this offline, without downloading anything else. In Opensuse the only resources that most resemble that are Kiwi and Suse Studio.
But it seems that in both the softwares must be downloaded from repositories online. That would not work for me because it would take a very long time to find out all the packages I installed, from what repositories and my internet connection is very slow so I could not do it all at once. I tried Clonezilla but I was not able to restore the content of my Opensuse partition to a different machine. It gave me error messages, didn't make the restore and I didn't find a solution anywhere online. How can I transfer the content of my Opensuse installation to another computer without having to use online resources?
recently I installed opensuse 11.4 in my Dell optiplex 790 desktop. everything works well. however, when I tried to restart or shutdown my computer . the computer logoff and then "freeze" at opensuse window. I have to turn off the power button forcely and turn on the computer again.

As a Windows user, I generated a pair of DSA keys from CoreFTP Lite and sent it to a third party that runs an SFTP server. They told me that a valid DSA key needs to have ssh-dsa at the start and the username@systemname at the end. CoreFTP generated neither the ssh-dsa header nor the username@systemname footer. I tried with WinSCP and it didn't generate them either. Is there a difference between how SFTP works between Windows and Linux? If I put a useraccount@systemname at the end of the text will it work? How would the Linux system validate that my system is called "systemname"? If it can't validate, what is the purpose of adding it?

I have managed to install SUSE 11.1 linux on an old ACER laptop. Everything works great unless I use the automatic install update tool. As soon as I do this the computer refuses to boot, it just gets stuck even on safe boot. What is going on ?

View 8 Replies View RelatedIt is my first try getting Linux on my pc which is an Acer Aspire Z5610. This is not the first time for me when I am getting an Kernel Panic error on this computer.
I looked up google hoping to find an answer and I found out that it may be my BIOS's fault. I currently have Windows 7 on this PC. I have a Phoenix BIOS and there is an update for it called "Bios Linux" on the official Acer support website.
OK, after this short introduction, that's the error:
I really hope to get support for this problem as I can not literally install any other OS to this PC than Windows 7 because they fail with Kernel Panic.
Tried other Linux Editions and even Mac OS Intel Edition and IAtkos V1 and V7 and they all give kernel panic.
In my computer I already installed Windows7 and Ubuntu.
when I start my computer then my computer want which OS I want to start with.
Now I'm want to install opensuse in my computer. But I want to know is it possible to run all 3 OS in my computer and when I start my computer it will ask that which OS now want to boot
1) Windows7
2) Opensuse
3) Ubuntu
I will enter my choice and If I enter choice 2 then I will work on "Opensuse" if I enter choice 3 then I will work on "Ubuntu" if I enter choice 1 then I will work on "Windows7"
The desktop computer stores most of our family's files and is mostly powered on, installed with Debian/openSUSE (KDE4).
We have 2 more portable (also Linux, KDE4) computers and frequently need to access files stored in the desktop. Currently file transferred is by usb thumbdrive which is troublesome.
The computers are all connected to a wireless router that provides access to the internet.
Reading/goolging and understand that there are many ways to share files to the extend that I am lost - Samba, NFS, SSH .....
My problem is to find out: What is the best way to access computers within the local network? "Best" here means:
- Secure
- Relative ease to setup
- Easy to use, file access with GUI (file manager?) as the entire family is using the computers.
I got this weird kernel panic in a brand new computer that my friend bought a few days ago.
The hardware specs are:
- AMD Athlon II X3
- 4 GB RAM
- SATA HDD and DVD
- Motherboard: MSI K9N6PGM2
Whats happening? I have installed openSUSE in a lot of machines and this is the first time that i got this.
Tried with a lot of media that i have here, LiveCD's, various DVD's and nothing.
I am running OpenSUSE 11.3 GNOME, and I recently reinstalled Windows, and it overwrote GRUB. I only have an Ubuntu LiveCD (I installed with the OpenSUSE DVD), how do I get GRUB back? Note that the Ubuntu LiveCD doesn't recognize the LVM Encrypted partition, so I can't mount it.
